Project description:Younger age and obesity increase the incidence and rates of metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), an aggressive subtype of breast cancer. The tissue microenvironment, specifically the extracellular matrix (ECM), is known to promote tumor invasion and metastasis. We sought to characterize the effect of both age and obesity on the ECM of mammary fat pads. We used a diet-induced obesity (DIO) model where 10-week-old female mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 16 weeks or a control chow diet (CD) where time points were every 4 weeks to monitor age and obesity HFD progression. We isolated the mammary fat pads to characterize the ECM at each time point. Utilizing proteomics, we found that the early stages of obesity were sufficient to induce distinct differences in the ECM composition of mammary fat pads that promote TNBC cell invasion. ECM proteins previously implicated in driving TNBC invasion Collagen IV and Collagen VI, were enriched with weight gain. Together these data implicate ECM changes in the primary tumor microenvironment as mechanisms by which age and obesity contribute to breast cancer progression.

Project description:To investigate the impact of combined Rb and p53 loss in mammary tumorigenesis, we used transgenic and viral approaches to delete Rb and p53 floxed alleles specifically in the mouse mammary epithelium. Although MMTV-Cre (NLST) targets stem/bi-potent progenitors in the mammary gland, a subset of MMTV-Cre:Rbf/f;p53f/f mice developed non-mammary tumors. Thus, freshly isolated primary mammary epithelial cells from these animals were transplanted into the mammary fat pads of immunodeficient mice and monitored for tumor formation. In addition, primary MECs were isolated from Cre-negative Rbf/f;p53f/f mice, infected with Ad-Cre followed by orthotopic transplantation. In all these cases, resulting tumors shared similar spindle-shape histology, expressed high levels of vimentin, a mesenchymal marker, but not E-cadherin, a luminal marker, and were classified as adeno-sacrcomatoid/spindle-cell/mesenchymal-like breast cancer. We used microarrays to detect differentially expressed genes in the Rb/p53 double-knock-out vs p53 single deletion or normal mammary tissue.

Project description:Tissue from cleared mammary fat pad and sham-operated controlateral control was removed before and at 10, 15,17, and 19 days of pregnancy. Cleared vs. controlateral tissue was hybridized in dye-swap design to in-house cDNA microarry platform. This design aims to identify factors signaling from the epithelial part of the mammary gland to the surrounding fat pad to initiate adipo-epithelial transdifferentiation. We surgically removed the epithelial part of the 4th mammary gland (including the nipple and the rudimentary ductal tree) in three weeks old CD1 mice where the ductal anlage is confined to the proximal part of the mammary fat pad close to the nipple. The controlateral gland was sham-operated as control. This leaves a cleared mammary fat pad in its endogenous environment. The dissected tissues were subjected to whole mount analysis to judge if the removal of epithelial tissue was complete. At the age of 10 to 15 weeks the tissues were harvested before and 10, 15, 17, and 19 days after the start of pregnancy. RNA from cleared fat pads were compared to sham-operated contralateral controls by competitive hybridization on two-channel microarrays. If enough material was available three different pools of RNA (= three biological replicates) were used for hybridization (from d19 material only two replicates were obtained) in a dye-swap configuraiton (one biological replicate of d17 and d19 samples did not provide sufficient amount for a dyw-swap pair).

Project description:It was demonstrated that mice with eIF4E that cannot be activated by phosphorylation (S209A) produced extracellular matrix (ECM) less conducive to breast cancer tumor invasion and metastasis. To examine whether this could in part bedue to differences in the protein composition we analyzed the proteome of soluble and insoluble ECM fractions derived from the mammary fat pad of mice with either WT or constitutively inactivated (S209A or "KI") eIF4E.

Project description:Many preclinical therapy studies have focused on a small number of well-described mouse allograft or human xenograft models that poorly represent the heterogeneity of human disease. Here we have assembled a panel of mouse mammary cell lines that metastasize in syngeneic mouse hosts and we have assessed gene expression programs in the untreated primary tumors with the goal of generating information that may be useful to the identification of biomarkers that predict response to therapeutic intervention. We used microarrays to assess global gene expression programs in primary tumors from 12 metastatic mouse mammary tumor models transplanted orthotopically into syngeneic, fully immunocompetent mouse hosts. The 12 tumor models used here are based on published cell lines that had been established from either spontaneous mammary tumors or from mammary tumors arising in genetically engineered mouse models. All cell lines were previously described to be metastatic. Cells were surgically implanted in the #4 mammary fat pads of syngeneic mice and primary tumors were harvested when they reached 0.5-1.0 cm diameter and snap-frozen for later RNA extraction. 4 independent tumors were collected for each of the 12 models.

Project description:Direct transcriptomics comparison corroborated by functional and gene network analyses of pre-weaned bovine mammary parenchyma and fat pad shed light on potential cross-talk between these developing tissues. Transcriptomic characterization of mammary parenchyma and fat pad and their interaction is still incomplete. In the present experiment, the molecular epithelial-fat pad cross-talk during mammary development was assessed by transcript profiling and functional analyses. Background: Interactions between bovine mammary parenchyma (PAR) and fat pad (MFP) during neonatal tissue development are still not fully understood. It is thought that the MFP surrounding the parenchymal tissue exerts proliferative effects on the PAR through secretion of local modulators of growth induced by systemic hormones. Main objectives in the present study were to use bioinformatics tools to characterize differences in transcript profiles between mammary PAR and MFP from Holstein heifers at ca. 65 d age and uncover potential cross-talk between the two tissues via the analyses of signaling molecules (e.g., cytokines and growth factors) preferentially expressed in one tissue relative to the other. Results: Over 9,000 differentially expressed genes (DEG; False discovery rate ≤ 0.05) were found of which 1,478 had a ≥1.5-fold difference. Within these DEG in PAR vs. MFP (n = 736) we noted enrichment of functions related to cell cycle, structural organization, signaling, and DNA/RNA metabolism. Few canonical pathways were among DEG and were mostly involved in cell cycle and tissue organization (p53 signaling). Enriched among DEG more highly-expressed in MFP vs. PAR (n = 742) were genes involved in lipid metabolism, signaling, cell movement, and immune-related functions. Canonical pathways associated with metabolism (fatty acid metabolism) and signaling, particularly immune- (acute phase response) and metabolism-related (cAMP signaling), were significantly enriched. Network analysis uncovered a central role of MYC, TP53, and CTNNB1 in controlling expression of DEG highly-expressed in PAR vs. MFP. Similar analysis revealed a central role of PPARG, KLF2, EGR2, and EPAS1 in regulating expression of highly-expressed DEG in MFP vs. PAR. Analyses revealed putative crosstalk between tissues via differential expression of cytokines and growth factors highly-expressed in PAR (angiopoietin-1, osteopontin, interleukin-1β) or in MFP (adiponectin, interleukin-13, fibroblast growth factor-2, leptin) during bovine mammary development. Conclusions: We uncovered specific transcriptomic signatures characterizing MFP and PAR tissue. Not surprisingly, the expression profile of the MFP is characteristic of adipose tissue, and the one of PAR is characteristic of an epithelial tissue undergoing expansion and remodeling. Overall, our data highlighted a large degree of interaction between the two tissues and allowed envisaging a reciprocal influence in determining the biological features (and perhaps the fate) of each of the two tissues during this stage of development. This is strongly suggested by the potential effect that the signaling molecules released preferentially by PAR have on lipid metabolism-related pathways, which from our data was what most distinguished the MFP from PAR. Similarly, the cytokines and growth factors largely expressed in MFP potentially affect the pathways related to cell cycle, development, and proliferation in PAR, which our data highlighted as the main functions represented among the genes highly expressed in PAR vs. MFP. Based on the current analysis, the number of cytokines and growth factors that potentially are secreted by each tissue and affect molecules in the other underscores the concept of crosstalk. Ultimately, these bidirectional interactions might be required to coordinate mammary tissue development under normal circumstances or in response to environmental stimuli, such as nutrition.
